Filed on wednesday. and, look, he wants his 2005 heisman trophy back. in 2010, remember that he voluntarily gave up the coveted award after an ncaa investigation found that he received benefits of several thousand dollars and a vehicle that were not allowed at the time, and he was ruled ineligible as of 2004. the supreme court ruled in 2021, you may recall, college athletes could actually receive education-related payments for use of their name, image, and likeness. and at the time bush petitioned to get his award reinstated but to no avail. bush now claims that the ncaa has defamed him recently and was never involved in a pay for play operation. in a separate petition, he s also asking for a reconsideration of their decision based on what bush s attorney, ben crump, calls a flawed and sloppy investigation. the ncaa has dekleined to comment on the lawsuit and also the petition. joining me now is civil rights attorney and attorney for reggie bush, ben crump.
i know the democratic leader of the senate intelligence leader said he would like to have director comey testify at a public hearing. i think the chances are good, he was invited to testify this week before a senate panel but has dekleined to do so, i think that he will be ready to speak at some future date. so that is what we ll be waiting, when he does decide to appear, there will be all eyes on that testimony. sarah, first, strong words from the former director of national intelligence, saying u.s. institutions are under assault by the president. but do politicians even care about that kind of rhetoric?
